Do I need a permit for a swimming pool?
Yes. The State Building Code 780 CMR 120.M defines a swimming pool as any pool with an area greater than 250-square-foot. and a depth greater than 2-foot. If your pool does not meet both of these criteria, then it is not considered a swimming pool and does not need a building permit.
